Hi.
This isn't so much a technical question as a philosophical one.
We're tired of dealing with Yahoo! which seems to either
(a) have the poorest trained "abuse" staff of any large email
service provider on the planet, or (b) they have a malicious
corporate culture of flat-out denying any email originated
from their networks, no matter how compelling the evidence.
I'm out of ideas, so I thought I'd turn to the group.
I recently had a message with the following headers:
Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

If someone can prove to me that this message didn't come from
Yahoo!, I will eat my shorts.
But until then, my next course of action seems to be blacklisting
Yahoo!, because I'm tired of their not investigating messages that
pretty obviously seem to be coming from them.
Any collective wisdom?
